· range 3.4–5.6
Oak Village takes in 3 census tracts of Riverdale, GA, population 11,648. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 5.2/10, Moderate tier. Against a Riverdale baseline of 33.5%, 52% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
Severe burden reaches 31%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. 82% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over. 22.2% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, against a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.
The clearest offset is supply constraint, at 1.5/10. Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 3.4 to 5.6, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. SNAP participation is 34.0% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
The poverty rate is 29%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Court records carry 12,162 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts. Sitting well above the midpoint is economic stress at 7.1/10.
At $1,173 a month, rents sit 14% under what the rest of Riverdale commands. The worst year on record was 2011, when filings touched 72.2% of renter households.
Underwrite the address, not the area: with 2.2 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
